Dile Congor
The Engineer is Engi-here
“Hey look, buddy, I'm an Engineer. That means I solve problems. Not problems like "What is balance of the Force?" [fzzzt] because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems. For instance: How am I going to stop some nasty old nerf herder from popping me like a walking, talking balloon? The answer [fzzzt] Use a blaster. And if that don't work: Use more blaster. Like this repeating, triple barreled, little ol' number designed by me, built by me, and you'd best hope [fzzzzzzzt] not pointed at you.”
NAME: Dile Congor
FACTION: Independent Mercenary
RANK: Freelance Combat Engineer
SPECIES: Skakoan
AGE: 48
SEX: Male
HEIGHT: 1.92 meters
WEIGHT: 115 kilograms
EYES: ???
HAIR: N/A
SKIN: Greyish-White
FORCE SENSITIVE: No
PERSONALITY AND BELIEFS: The first thing people notice about Dile personality-wise is his affable, down-to-earth, and laconic outward nature. The rather folksy accent and mannerisms his vocoder is tuned to enhances this perception. His species, the Skakoans are often thought of as cold and uptight so Dile’s attitude often surprises non-Skakoans. One thing he does share with the common outsider image of his species is his enthusiastic but disciplined love for machinery and technology in all its forms. He is always willing to both learn from and teach others in this field. Despite his experience in the field, he is modest enough to know that there is always something new he can learn and that new knowledge could come from anyone. However, Dile does have a darker side to his personality. He thoroughly enjoys seeing his creations working as intended, and since many of his creations are lethal weapons, it leads to a certain dissociation that the things being ripped to shreds by his weaponry are people. He is also still resentful of being banished from his home and thus has a bit of an attitude that the non-Skakoans he interacts with are simply those he is obligated to be with rather than who he would choose.
STRENGTHS
BIOGRAPHY: Dile Congor was born on the planet Skako to a family living in one of the planet’s few non-urbanized regions. Engineering was a Congor family tradition, though they were far more freelance and pragmatic about it than the planet’s city-dwelling industrialists. Dile worked as an informal apprentice under his grandfather, a respected iron mine foreman.
After his grandfather passed away, Dile moved to the city to pursue formal engineering education. His pragmatic and adaptable approach to problems proved useful in outmaneuvering his more rigid peers, allowing him to reach the top of his class upon finishing his initial degree. However, his rise earned him enemies among those jealous of his success. At a demonstration of a new device of his, an autonomous mining laser droid, the droid went haywire and killed several onlookers before Dile was able to stop it. He insisted that it had been perfectly safe and that one of his enemies was responsible. An investigation concluded otherwise, and Dile was legally banished from Skako and all Skakoan colonies. Dile never talks about the events of his past with others, and prefers to keep his mind on tackling the problems of the present.
Nowadays, Dile works as a freelance combat engineer, building weaponry and fortifications for governments, warlords, crime bosses, and anyone else who will pay him across the galaxy. Of course, some unwise clients occasionally try betray him to get out of paying what they owe. In those cases, Dile is more than happy to turn the elaborate defense systems he set up in their bases against them and take what he is owed off their corpses.

STRENGTHS
- Mechanically Inclined: Dile is adept at assembling, operating and repairing machinery of all kinds through both natural talent and years of experience.
- Tech-Equipped: Dile has built all sorts of useful technology into his unique pressure suit ranging from listening devices to exotic weapon systems to an extendable straw that lets him drink without removing the suit.
- Pragmatic: Dile knows how to prioritize his problems and tackle them however he can with whatever he has.
- Droid Backup: Dile is always sure to travel with a small entourage of droids for any problems he cannot solve himself.
- Pressurized Physiology: As a Skakoan, Dile must wear a pressure suit when in an environment with standard pressure. If the suit is breached, Dile will meet a horrific and explosive end.
- Isolated: As Dile has been barred from setting foot in any Skakoan community, he is always an outsider wherever he goes. This results in him not always grasping the customs and manners of other species.
